Retrograde Lyrics by ​dhruv

rapunzel

0

[Verse 1]
Meet me at our corner after dark
I swear this city's never seen a light as bright as ours
It’s taking every fiber of our beings to fend it off
But how long can this go on?
Rode the early thrills of secrecy
When you're with your friends I'm just a passing stranger on the street
These pent-up feelings brim inside until I’m shoulder-deep
And calling for a lifeboat

[Chorus]
Wish I didn't know this pain (oh-oh)
Lovers caught in retrograde (oh-oh)
The more we go against the grain, the more it hurts
All in retrograde
Love in retrograde

[Verse 2]
Movie night, I'll snеak in through the back (I'll tiptoe quietly)
I know thе drill
We spare your mom and dad the heart attack (Don't want to make a scene)
Their pride and joy, you're framed in every corner of this flat
And I'd never fit the picture
You were talking about our day in the sun
Like it's imminent, though I suspect it’ll never come
Keeping our hopes that this isn’t a false start
Is it time to face the facts?

[Chorus]
Wish I didn't know this pain (oh-oh)
Lovers caught in retrograde (oh-oh)
The more we go against the grain, the more it hurts
All in retrograde
Love in retrograde

[Outro]
I promise I won’t forget you
When I'm leaving this all behind
Can you promise you won't forget me
When you find yourself on the outside?
